Answer:

Option (E) is correct.

Explanation:

The opportunity cost refers to the benefits that are sacrificed by choosing some other alternative.

In our case, there are two restaurants as follows:

One is 2 miles away from home with higher prices

Second one is 15 miles away from home with lower prices

But Melissa chooses the first one by comparing the opportunity cost associated with each option relative to the other option.

This is because of the higher opportunity cost associated with second restaurant offsets the higher monetary cost of the first restaurant.

Given the following 2023 information for the Pinto Company: Increase in Wages Payable $ 400 Operating Expenses $5,000 Total Cash
Anna007 [38]

Answer: $1,800

Explanation:

Operating expenses comprise of only insurance and wages.

The total operating expenses were $5,000.

Out of that $5,000, $400 was for an increase in wages, $4,000 was paid off.

The rest is therefore for insurance.

= 5,000 - 400 - 4,000

= $600

If $600 is the insurance payment during the year then on 1/1/23, the balance was the current balance plus the payment;

= 1,200 + 600

= $1,800

How does income flow between businesses and consumers?
Mandarinka [93]
Consumers are interdependent with each other as, the consumers create the demand for goods and the businesses provide the service and production to supply the good. If the demand is high then the income of businesses is high as well, but if demand is low then the income of the suppliers also drops. Without demand, the producers will not earn money and the employees will not be able to pay rent, bills etc, to support the households.

Hope that this helps!
